I don&#39;t know you, but I reckon you&#39;re on the outside looking into the Legislature fishbowl, so perhaps you really don&#39;t know how much time and effort would be involved.<br /><br />Furthermore, a well-written digest can give a legislator enough information to form an opinion on Doughttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00278477472958926963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6959902578244533249.post-88320066745503532632009-09-23T17:48:26.061-10:002009-09-23T17:48:26.061-10:00Howzit Doug!
